STEM Coding – Scratch

The STEM Coding course introduces students to the exciting connection between coding and applied mathematics. It’s perfect for for primary school students who have some prior experience or for students new to coding and eager to explore how maths powers technology. Students learn how concepts such as X & Y coordinate system, angles & degrees, positive and negative numbers, and many other mathematical ideas come to life through interactive projects and games.

The STEM Coding program consists of four levels (10 lessons per level) and includes 20 engaging, hands-on projects. Using block-based coding in Scratch, students design and develop games such as Treasure Grid Quest, where they navigate a grid using coordinates; Geometry Dash, which explores angles, gravity and friction; and Space Invaders which strengthens logical thinking and sequencing. They also create practical applications such as a digital clockinteractive quizzes, and dynamic art projects like a Digital Kaleidoscope, where symmetry and geometry meet creativity.

As they build their projects, students apply concepts from applied mathematics to control movement, design game mechanics, and animate digital characters. They also strengthen their computational thinking while learning essential coding structures such as loops, variables, functions, and conditionals.

By combining creativity with problem-solving, students gain confidence in both mathematics and coding, learning to think like young engineers and innovators. The course uses an online programming environment that provides continuous access to study materials, allowing students to experiment and advance their skills beyond the classroom.
